This is interesting. Having seen it before and loving it, Im not sure I would see it again, yet I might not be able to pass it up. Maybe se should have a satantago party!

I just saw it in Seattle the first weekend of December but I may just have to take it in again. I'm working on an essay/critique for The House... it's pretty amazing: wholly worth the whole-day investment. DVD doesn't cut it, you gotta sit through the whole thing.

(Hopefully I'll be an enrolled student by that time, too.)

Sounds like it'll be a good crowd already!

Scott, I like your idea of a Satantango party. Anyone know some good tango dancers and/or Satanists?
